Tien, P. W., Wang, H., Tokbolat, S., Boukhanouf, R., Calautit, J., & Darkwa, J. (2025). Application of life cycle assessment for enhancing sustainability of district heating: A multi-level approach. Energy Reports, 13, 5077-5096. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.egyr.2025.04.044

District heating (DH) is a proven heat generation and distribution technology that enhances energy efficiency and reduces carbon emissions at scale, making it a key component of sustainable energy strategies. Compared to traditional heat generation m... Read More about Application of life cycle assessment for enhancing sustainability of district heating: A multi-level approach.

Integrated Phase-Change Materials in a Hybrid Windcatcher Ventilation System (2025)
Journal Article
Eso, O., Darkwa, J., & Calautit, J. (2025). Integrated Phase-Change Materials in a Hybrid Windcatcher Ventilation System. Energies, 18(4), Article 848. https://doi.org/10.3390/en18040848

Windcatchers are effective passive ventilation systems, but their inability to actively reduce and stabilize supply air temperatures reduces indoor cooling performance. This study addresses this limitation by integrating encapsulated phase-change mat... Read More about Integrated Phase-Change Materials in a Hybrid Windcatcher Ventilation System.
